00:35.30Torhaloscarucb: The custom list is unaffected?
00:37.38oscarucblike I said in the ticket, upgrading from the old NPCscan to 5.2 cleared it, and then upgrading to 5.4 cleared it again
00:38.39oscarucbI didn't dig through the code, but I'm guessing the change to the Version field in the SV caused it to toss everything, where it should instead have some upgrade logic to preserve the settings

00:40.25znfTorhal, secretly make it so that when someone installs npcscan, it installs SilverDragon instead
00:41.07KemayoOh snap.
00:42.28*** join/#wowace Archarodim (HydraIRC@78.203.110.56)
00:46.21Torhalznf: How about fuck off?
00:48.03Torhaloscarucb: I've seen you be rabid about shit before, but seriously…"douchy"? I was about to go into a whole "You don't pay me to do this shit" rant until I saw that that ticket was done by someone who should know better. At any rate, since the migration code is killing things off anyway, I now have an excuse to completely redo things to a much saner system.
00:49.24oscarucbIt's very frustrating to a user to spend lots of time entering settings, and then have them discarded without warning when they upgrade addon version
00:49.34oscarucbespecially twice in one week
00:50.04TorhalI understand that, oscarucb…but phrasing your complaint as though I did this intentionally is pretty fucking "douchy" too.
00:50.05Torhal:P
00:50.09oscarucbI'm not saying it was intentional or anything, but expressing that the effect on the user was quite negative
00:50.16znfTorhal, why so mean? :(
00:50.31Torhalznf: Why so "Fuck _NPCScan"?
00:50.44TorhalI am just now starting to make the code not shite.
00:50.59oscarucbyea I don't envy cleaning up that mess, thats for sure
00:51.28oscarucbmight also be a good idea to keep things as beta until you're sure it's solid
00:51.33TorhalI'm sorry it's killing SavedVariables, but I'm a bit relieved because I can now make it un-shitty without having to worry about migrations.
00:51.41znfso mean :(
00:52.03TorhalAnd you're the first person who has complained, so I'm assuming you're an "advanced" user (advanced being someone who doesn't just roll with it)
00:52.04znfI'm not "so fuck npcscan" :(
00:52.12oscarucbso instead of fixing the problem for the thousands who have not upgraded in the past week, your plan is to ensure its broken for everyone?
00:52.13Torhal[19:40:24] znf: Torhal, secretly make it so that when someone installs npcscan, it installs SilverDragon instead
00:52.30oscarucbwhy not add the few lines of code to copy the custom list?
00:53.05Torhaloscarucb: Yes. I can't fix the people who are already screwed, and I don't "get" the current system, so why not have a fresh start with a fresh project manager?
00:53.26oscarucbthe other settings only take a moment to fix, but if you have a big custom list it can take a long time to track it all down again
00:53.33TorhalI've found at least four cases of "this, that, the_other_thing = nil" FFS
00:53.37pompyParnic: https://www.facebook.com/borderlandsgame/posts/10151752394209081 cooomee on :) u guys arent Rockstar!! :P
00:53.59TorhalThere are many things that just don't make a lick of sense/
00:54.24oscarucbso change all that stuff, go nuts. I'm just requesting that you preserve this ONE setting.
00:54.33TorhalIt's already being destroyed.
00:54.39oscarucbsigh
00:54.52oscarucbYes, people who downloaded in the past week are screwed.
00:54.55TorhalAnd it's faster/easier for me to make the system sane than to figure out WHY it's broken and fix it.
00:55.11TorhalThis is a one-time deal.
00:55.12oscarucbBut everyone ELSE still has a valid custom list in their SV that can be preserved
00:55.38TorhalAnd I'll implement your other suggestion for making the custom stuff easier to manage.
00:55.48TorhalSo it isn't a big deal AFAIAC.
00:55.59oscarucbthat would certainly make it less annoying to have it wiped
00:56.11oscarucbbut many mobs are not on those lists
00:56.11TorhalI have A Plan (™)
00:56.25KemayoIt does seem sort of weird to do it this way, instead of just making a new addon with a new name.
00:56.31Torhaloscarucb: Fuck those lists. Fuck everything about the old system.
00:56.57oscarucbI mean the lists like the one you added for Timeless Champion, which btw is missing a few
00:57.10TorhalKemayo: I'm maintaining my market share. Not going to lie. But the end result is going to be leaps and bounds better that the shit I'm dealing with now.
00:57.24Torhaloscarucb: That's SLOKnightfall
00:57.55oscarucbso you plan to remove the prepopulated mob lists?
00:59.32Torhaloscarucb: Clone the repo and point me to the commit where that shit happened, and explain your issues.....
01:00.22TorhalI took this over three months ago, have had an extremely busy/draining work schedule since then…SLOKnightfall gave me the motivation to quit being a lazy-ass TV-show watcher and actually get back to hobby-coding.
01:00.37TorhalEspecially when I see some of the shit he's done :D
01:00.43TorhalAll kinds of "WAT"
01:00.50TorhalHe's smart, though.
01:00.55KemayoYeah, there's nothing quite like crazy commits from a collaborator to motivate one.
01:01.06TorhalBut some of his methods make me go "Uh, yeah…you COULD have..."
01:02.18oscarucbI'm pretty sure the code block I pasted above is what wipes the data, in combination with the commits that have changed DB_VERSION
01:03.06oscarucb_NPCScan.lua:849
01:03.15Torhaloscarucb: Then give me a patch that actually fixes it. I'm drunk at the moment, and that change should have been structurally sound but considering what I was traslating from I may have missed something.
01:03.46TorhalHe was comparing if one STRING was less than another regarding versions FFS.
01:04.22oscarucbthe problem is not the comparison, its the action taken when it fails
01:04.32oscarucbie "old data" => wipe everything
01:04.39Torhalif "5.2.1" < Options.Version then <-- WAT
01:05.08Torhaloscarucb: Oh, that's all on him. There was migration code before he decided to fuck with that shit.
01:05.39TorhalI'm happy he's doing what he's doing (for the most part) but I'll gladly slap him down if he's destroying shit for no reason other than "it's easier"
01:05.52oscarucbLike I said I'm not pointing fingers at any particular person, just making a user complaint about behavior
01:05.54TorhalI honestly thought I'd fucked something up.
01:06.04TorhalBut I am NOT wiping shit on purpose.
01:06.42TorhalI've already had two PMs with him about "Why the hell are you deleting alpha versions?"
01:07.15TorhalFirst one resulted in "I know some people update from them and I messed something up"
01:07.36TorhalSecond was "I didn't realize you'd pushed changes and I thought the packager just went nuts"
01:07.42Torhalheaddesks.
01:07.55oscarucbwell, you are the manager, so you have the power to "fire" him
01:08.14TorhalNow he's actually answering comments with "This is an alpha. Use at your own risk"
01:08.21Torhaloscarucb: I realize that, but he isn't an idiot.
01:08.39TorhalHe's just…repository-challenged.
01:08.45TorhalHe's getting better!
01:09.54TorhalAnd some of his code changes, while they make me scratch my head, aren't completely fucked. He's just apparently learned programming completely from WoW AddOns.
01:10.46TorhalI have a completely irrational feeling that he'll see what I'm doing with the code and catch on
01:11.56oscarucbWell anyhow, I've passed on the information I had on the problem, do with it what you wish
01:13.56Torhaloscarucb: You could try to fix it...
01:14.18TorhalI changed the repository to Open a day or so ago.
01:14.31TorhalAs I said, I'm drunk at the moment.
01:14.48TorhalSo if you do fix it, your alphs version could Save the World (™)
01:15.11Torhals/alphs/alphas/
01:15.18oscarucbGiven the state of the code and your reports of the dev interactions, I think I'd prefer to steer clear
01:15.37Xuerianyeah, it's enough hassle dealing with me :p
01:16.07Torhaloscarucb: The affected code should be easy to grok, and I'm pretty sure he's decided to stick with .Overlay since I'm heavily editing the main AddOn.
01:16.30TorhalAnd even if he hasn't? It's on him to merge that shit.
01:16.39TorhalSo, by all means.
01:17.20Torhaloscarucb: Either you do it, or I'll make Xuerian do it by threatening to have Stanzilla lick his nipples.
01:17.35oscarucbsigh, I'll take a look
01:17.40Xueriano_o;
01:17.45TorhalOr you can just wait until I nuke the whole thing from orbit.
01:18.14TorhalXuerian: Sorry to use you in that manner, but he needed a harsh visualization.
01:18.38Xueriantries to find a cup of coffee to hold in a shaky manner.
01:19.24TorhalXuerian: Damn it. That was a perfect segue for "You're not wrong; you're just an asshole"
01:20.05Xuerian:P
01:21.03Torhaloscarucb: Would I be a complete asshole if I were to tell you to fix it in the code before I actually did anoything with it? :D
01:21.13Torhalhides behind Xuerian.
01:21.31XuerianTorhal: You're a monster when you're drunk.
01:21.52Torhals/monster when you're//
01:21.59TorhalOh, wait…I fucked that up.

01:59.28oscarucboh, I know it was bad
02:00.03TorhalMost of the reason I'd been putting off updating this bitch was "I'm burned out right now"

02:00.32TorhalThe rest was "I don't want to deal with why he needs such a convoluted update process at this point in time"
02:00.57TorhalNow that I've dived in head-first? I am pretty sure most of it is completely unnecessary.
02:01.48Torhal"I know! I'll use FIVE non-standard Python libraries…and a LOCALLY PATCHED version of Routes!"
02:02.04Torhaldies a bit every time he thinks of that.
